Visiting New York City at Christmastime has long been on my bucket list, and this year we made it happen. The Big Apple is one of our favorite getaway destinations and a place that never gets old for us. This is partly due to the fact that our love for cities runs deep, but also because you get a different New York every time you visit. Ty likes to say that the city doesn’t wait for you—it changes with the culture, moving on without your permission or stopping to care what you have to say about it.
This time around we definitely experienced her like never before. NYC at Christmas is a truly magical scene—one that I will long remember!
| This time around we stayed at the Arlo Nomad, a newly-opened boutique hotel in midtown |
| A slow start on Friday morning at Nickel & Diner in Lower Manhattan |
911 Museum | Not necessarily something you “want” to see, but an important visit nonetheless
| The Brooklyn Bridge & Washington Square Park |
| On Broadway… |
| Snow fell for the first (and only!) time on Saturday morning, so I ran around to snap a few shots |
| The Great Tree in all her glory |
| Brunch at Jacob’s Pickles on the Upper East Side |
| The Met |
| Vegetarian Tapas at Ladybird |
| Radio City Music Hall & the nearby window displays were just so magical! |
| Miscellaneous shots from around town… |
If I could sum the entire trip up in one picture, it would be the one shown below. This trip was an early Christmas gift to ourselves and a great one at that. Now it’s off to Ohio to spend the rest of the holidays with those we love most. Merry Christmas to you & yours!
